Nature / Picnic area
Göksu Park
Etimesgut, Ankara
One of Ankara's large city parks, laid out around the former Susuz Pond in Eryaman, with a pond, an open-air theater and walking paths.
Its story
The park was created around Susuz Pond, built in 1960 under a DSİ (State Hydraulic Works) flood-control plan. Taken up in the 1990s as part of the İstanbul Road city-entrance project, the area was opened to the public through the work of Etimesgut Municipality and Ankara Metropolitan Municipality. More than 127,000 m² of the roughly 550,000 m² park is taken up by the pond. Around the pond are walking paths, pedal boats, an open-air theater, a lighthouse-shaped structure and children's playgrounds. The park lies at the center of the Göksu neighborhood, to which it gives its name.
